Re: Jesse's llama picture link

Cat stories abound. They may be on a smaller scale than Llama stories, but they are just as dear.
Jack usually stays in at night but got stuck outside Mon night. When
that happens he usually makes double sure it doesn't happen the next
night by parking himself on my bed from around 8 pm on. Tues night
everybody went out again surprisingly, and I went to bed. This morning
when they all came bounding in - no Jackie. I looked everywhere. Made
coffee, took a shower, went to dressing room. I heard a tiny mew and
thought oh! Jack's outside the window, but no. So I proceeded getting
dressed, opened my underwear drawer....yep, here's Jackie!
